Suddenly, white robes could be seen walking over entered Fire Phoenix's eyes.

  "Mas…"

  Flame Phoenix was elated and wanted to greet Mu Ru Yue. However, she couldn't help but be stunned after feeling the aura that was being emitted from Mu Ru Yue's body.

  "Fire Phoenix?"

  Mu Ru Yue's gaze turned to see Fire Phoenix that was at the entrance of the manor. With a slight smile, she said, "You've finally come."

  Mu Ru Yue used soul transmission to tell Fire Phoenix to come to the Nanyang Region to meet up with her after she left the academy. She didn't expect her to catch up with her that fast.

  "Fire Phoenix, what's wrong?"

  Mu Ru Yue could see the shock in Fire Phoenix's eyes. She frowned and asked, "What happened?"

  Fire Phoenix didn't reply to her as she just continued to look dazedly at Mu Ru Yue. A layer of tears coated her beautiful eyes. She looked past her tears to look at the woman's impeccable appearance.

  "It's no wonder why you were able to contract the Alchemy Book and why you look so alike to him. So…"

  "Fire Phoenix?"

  The woman's worried voice entered Fire Phoenix's ears, making her come back to her senses. "Master, let's go inside your room. I've got something to tell you…"

  Mu Ru Yue nodded after remaining silent for a moment and agreed, "Alright."

  The bed's curtain fluttered slightly after a breeze blew past it.

  Mu Ru Yue's gaze landed on Fire Phoenix's face inside the worn-down room.

  Plop!

  Suddenly, Fire Phoenix knelt before Mu Ru Yue with tears rolling down her devastatingly beautiful face.

  "Young Master, I've finally found you."

  "Fire Phoenix?"

  Mu Ru Yue was stunned with a trace of surprise expressed in her eyes.

  "Young master," Fire Phoenix raised her teary eyes to look at the face before her and revealed, "You are the daughter of my Master!"

  Boom!

  A clap of thunder rolled past Mu Ru Yue's heart. Astonishment was expressed on her face. It was as if she couldn't believe what Fire Phoenix's said…


  "Fire Phoenix, what's going on?"

  'Why am I the daughter of Fire Phoenix's master?"

  "Perhaps young master's bloodline previously wasn't awakened so I couldn't feel his blood within your body! But now after reuniting again, I could clearly feel that you're his daughter!"

  Mu Ru Yue shook her head and said, "I am the daughter of Madam Sheng Yue and Xiao Jing Tian. How can I be related to your previous master? Oh, that's right…"

  Mu Ru Yue thought back to that status inside the mountain cave at that instant.

  'If I haven't remembered wrong, that statue had said two words, 'bloodline awakening'! Can it be I have different parents?"

  "Your master…" A trace of confusement flickered past Mu Ru Yue's eyes as she looked at Fire Phoenix without blinking. "Is he known as Wu Wang1?"

  'That man's might was comparable to a divine god. It is especially so for that 'sword that pierces the heavens''s sword move. Currently, I am unable to release that kind of tyrannical might…'

  Fire Phoenix's eyes lit up as she said, "Have you seen him? That's right, my master is Wu Wang!"

  'It was really him!'

  Mu Ru Yue gradually shut her eyes with her body trembling slightly.

  'It's no wonder why my bloodline can initiate the inheritance power.

  'It's no wonder… why that baby in the man's embrace gave me such a nostalgic feeling…'

  "Master, he was forced to send you to a safe place for your safety a thousand years ago. Following that, he went to the purgatory to find me and ordered me to protect you.

  "Howbeit, you went missing when you were ten years of age. I wasn't able to find you no matter how hard I tried… I had bitterly searched for you for a century. Yet, I still couldn't find you.

  "I originally thought you already were no longer living in this world so I returned to guard the purgatory once again. But since our fate wasn't severed, we were bound to reunite. Perhaps he had guided me to contract with you…"
